We met Allison while interviewing historian Sarah Bellian. She
tagged along and we actually ended up nerding out with her for
nearly an hour before we started our interview with Sarah.

We became fast friends and would say this is one of our favorite
episodes thus far. She's studying freshwater mussels in the Village
Creek, a spring-fed stream that is a part of the Big Thicket
ecosystem. We talk about these animals and how they're being
effected by climate change events and civil engineering
projects.
